Out of Body
Open Eye Gallery is proud to present Out of Body, an exhibition of photographs and moving image works that explore, manipulate and reflect upon the human body. The exhibition looks at the relationship between biological and photographic time, contrasting the continuous life cycle with the still photographic instant. Rejecting the rules of traditional portraiture, Out of Body does not attempt to capture the human body in a stable visual form. Instead it expresses the resistance of our bodies to being coded or pinned down as images, and the limitations of the technologies through which we attempt to do this.

Stefan Ruiz à Liverpool
Mexican American photographer Stefan Ruiz captures the stars, sets and melodrama of 'telenovelas' - Latin American soap operas, in the latest Open Eye Gallery exhibition, The Factory of Dreams.

Taking us behind the scenes, Ruiz reveals a vast industry virtually unheard of in the West, but adored throughout Latin America and the non-Western world.

"Andmoreagain" : exposition collective à Liverpool
SIMON CUNNINGHAM, IDRIS KHAN, MAIKO HATANO, MARTIN NEWTH, KATY WOODS
In Andmoreagain five young UK-based artists explore the relationship between
time and the photographic image. Using a range of techniques, from multiple
and time exposures to the creation of composite images and sampled loops,
they compress and distill time, stretch it out and reduce it to fragments.
Their nominal subject matter - of familiar, everyday scenes and images - is
transformed, becoming at times strange, uncanny, steeped in pathos and
nostalgia.
Simon Cunningham takes fragments of films and re-edits them as loops that
trap us in an endless, repeated...

Stephen Hugues à Liverpool
Open Eye Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of new work by acclaimed UK photographer Stephen Hughes. Hughes has worked across Europe and America photographing places and people that seem to exist on the fringes of the urban and natural landscapes. Imbued with a mysterious, filmic, dream-like quality his photographs ask us to question what is happening within them and what might happen next.
Since his debut exhibition at the De La Warr Pavilion in 2001, Brighton based photographer Stephen Hughes has exhibited across Europe and recently held his first U.S. solo exhibition at the Robert Mann Gallery, New York. His work has feature...
